Stockholm Archipelago Tour

Discover the Stockholm Archipelago by boat
The Stockholm Archipelago is woven into the fabric of the capital—just as integral as its streets, landmarks, and residents. The shift in scenery as you move from the urban centre out into the island-dotted waters is one of the tour’s most striking moments. For many visitors, a boat tour through the Stockholm Archipelago is a highlight of their time in Sweden.

Departing from in front of the Royal Palace on Gamla Stan, the tour is led by an English-speaking guide who shares insights on the surrounding sights, the vessel itself, the Swedish royal family, and local customs. Should you wish, the on-board bar offers drinks and light snacks for purchase during the journey.

The route takes you from central Stockholm out to the nearby islands, where the landscape shifts between open water, wooded shorelines, and rocky outcrops. Among the notable stops along the way are Fjäderholmarna and Tegelön, both offering a glimpse into the archipelago’s varied character.
